Cessna has improved the maximum take-off weight of the T206H with the release this week of the Turbo Stationair HD.
The HD model brings an increase in maximum take-off weight of 85 kg, taking the useful load up to 667 kg in standard six-seat configuration or 736 kg in utility configuration.
“Textron Aviation is committed to building and delivering aircraft that meet our customers’ needs and the Turbo Stationair HD is the latest example of our continued investment in the piston product line,” said Doug May, vice president, Piston Aircraft.
“Already considered the heavy-hauler in its class, operators using the aircraft for hauling families, freight, special mission equipment or simply more fuel can now all benefit from increased payload and range.”
Textron Aviation has a Turbo Stationair HD on static display at Oshkosh this week, which features Garmin G1000 avionics suite with integrated Synthetic Vision Technology (SVT) and dual 10.4-inch LCD screens, ADS-B Out capability, a turbocharged 310 horsepower Lycoming TIO-540-AJ1A engine and a McCauley three-blade constant speed heated propeller. The aircraft on display will also feature a flat floor, stowable seats and a cargo pod.
